If thats the case, I'd deffinately be interested.
Have you fitted forged rods?

yea i have indeed, you will need to if you want to run more boost, standard ones are not good enough, also will need to change main bearing bolts to stronger ones.
 
ok so here are all the update pics as promised, sorry for the delay, after a long upload of 40 odd pictures someone turned my laptop off and it all dissappeared so had to start over...
firstly i will start with some pics of my cleaned head and after it was skimmed...

ok so my wheels turned out to be in a right state when i took them off, got them blasted but it didnt take all the s**t off them so did them by hand...
got them ready and primed, then flattened and high built again another 2 times before painting...

Hi Uzi,

Hows it all going? I got a good offer for a 2260VK and looks like he will be supplying same type of manifold to have. Could you PM me some details of where you sourced the products from please? Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
Maz
